Politrix - You're better off renting if you want to vote in Michigan

Michigan Republicans aim to keep residents in foreclosure from voting.

Amazing! And not in a good way. Since when does being in foreclosure mean you cannot vote? Of course, many of those with homes in foreclosure will be minorities (who typically vote Democratic).

"Macomb County [Michigan] is in the top three-percent of counties in the U.S. hit hardest by the foreclosure crisis -- and African-Americans, as the primary victims of sub-prime lending practices, make up the majority of these cases. African-Americans also tend to vote democratic, which is why it's not surprising that the GOP would target these voters for suppression."

As the article states..."This is just the latest -- and most transparent -- in a long history of racially and politically motivated GOP attacks against Michigan voters, designed to suppress votes by disenfranchising individual voters and creating confusion and delays at the polls."

As you can see, the fockery has already started. I'm sure there's more bowlshyt like this to come. Reminds me of a Scarface track, "Smartz".

UPDATE: Looks like the Obama camp is suing.
